battery is drained, you can jump start your vehi-
cle using another vehicle. Jump start cables are
needed to do this.
Both vehicle batteries must have 12 V nominal
voltage. The voltage capacity (Ah) of the vehicle
battery that is giving power must not be less
than the capacity of the drained vehicle battery.

Only use a jump start cable with a large enough
diameter. Note the manufacturer's specifica-
tions.

nal clamps.
Positive cable - usually red.
Negative cable - usually black.
